How about some basic information, like:
1. What kind of motors available, more specifically stock motors?
2. Pricing
3. How to order
4. Do you have distribution, or can we only buy direct?
Thanks for any info!

I was told today that metro has 18 inch tall weeds overrunning what used to be the track, and no sign of life anywhere. This is just speculation, but i wouldnt be shocked if the race isnt in bako. track is not in any shape for racing from what i hear. i do know jimmy owns a track the race could be moved to...
just speculation...do not take this as an official word from anyone involved with the jbrl.

Casper said that the track is a go.......here's what he posted yesterday....
JBRL update. Talked with Jimmy who has been in touch with Don. Racing is on for Metro and they have recently redone the track. No club racing Friday or Sat but track will be open for practice until the sun goes down on Sat.
Normal JBRL race schedule for Sunday. The back dirt parking lot will be open this year for those that want to bring RV's!

Kevin,
I will be attending all JBRL races, as well as the ROAR nationals, Hot Rod Shootout, and Reedy Truck Race. I also will try to make as many Hot Rod club races as possible.
LosiJoe,
You are the first person to note how slow my motors are. Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I will find more power to give my drivers. Our results over the past year have not said much. Perfection is our goal, and until we can win every stock and 19 turn class at every JBRL race and all the major SoCal races, we will not rest. Perhaps we can sit down at Metro and discuss some motor tuning. You may be able to help find the extra power we have obviously been lacking. I will buy you a cold Pepsi.
Motor Pricing: MurfDogg Motor Works sells motors direct to Hobby Shops in Southern California. Unlike "other" motor companies out there, I will not have a MSRP of $45 for a motor and then sell direct to the racer at $30-35. That is not good business practice. If a racer cannot purchase a MurfDogg Motor from his Local Hobby Shop, we invite him to contact us direct. We will not undercut the hobby shops and tracks that provide us a place to race. If they dont make money, we do not race.
MurfDogg motors are race ready and have received every "legal" tweak possible. You will not receive more for your money anywhere. Yes they do cost more. But you get more. I stand behind my products and attend all the major races to support my team drivers, and more importantly my customers.

Mystery Stock Motor
We will be playing with the new stock motor. I believe it will have an advantage over the CO27, but only in TC racing. I believe the higher weight of Offroad vehicles will handicap the quad rotor arm. TC racing is better suited to high RPM motors, Offroad is certainly not.
But I am certainly gonna test it to see what it has.
